DISCOVERY 1 HEATER CONTROL PANEL BUST! REPAIR OR REPLACE?

lrjohn said:

So I knew the heater control panel in the Discovery 1 I bought was cracked, but I didn't know it was actually in two pieces till I removed it today!
I have had a quick look to see if I can find a replacement with no luck – if you or you know someone who has one I would be very grateful!

Alternatively has anybody had success in gluing these trim pieces together, if so what adhesive have you used? Any advice much appreciated

BTR3672JUL is the part number, you may find a new item if you search, but there is a second hand one on eBay for just £50. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/17615502...6VSJ8D&hash=item2903a86e8e:g:yXcAAOSwZJZllzq0

There are youtubes on mending plastic. It can be done. Most seem to use stick-on silver paper stuff, on the front side then making up a sort of glue gun with a copper pipe beaten into a shape so you can feed cable ties down it. This you attach to an ornery soldrering iron.
Best of luck.
